8the nxt day, Paul n Pendragon were bk at Grooves' office as the lawyer looked thru the contract8
Pendragon; 8seemed rather stiff8
Grooves: 8finished looking thru the contract8 Hmm, evrything seems to be in order
Paul: 8squeezed Pendragon's hand gently8
Pendragon; 8bit his lip8
Grooves: Alright. We'll go thru this will then. I won't bore u with the details, bt basically ur parents hv left their estate to u n Penelope--tho now her share is fully urs as well--n tht also includes their mansion tht they passed away in. Dont worry. The cleaning crew has already fully cleaned n cleared the area, so u won't be under the threat of smog inhalation. The mansion is urs to do with. If u want to move in to it, its also up to u
Paul: Well... we do need the space 8rubbed his middle n looked at Pendragon8
Pendragon; It'll be dangerous
Paul: Why? Why would it be dangerous?
Grooves: I assure u, the house is fully cleaned. No trace of smog whatsoever
Paul: 8whispered to Pendragon8 Are u worried abt the spirits?
Pendragon; 8nods8
Paul: 8whispered8 I thought u said the spirits r OK
Pendragon; MOST of them r harmless but there are hostile ones
Grooves: 8noticed their hushed discussion8 Is there anything I would like to knw?
Paul: Oh, um, sorry, a bit of a personal business
Grooves: Well, like I said, the mansion will be urs to deal with. I'm just here to tell u abt it as well as to draw up the papers. I would like ur signature so tht u'll agree to the terms, Mr Pendragon
Pendragon; Of course
Grooves: 8gave him the contract n a pen8
Pendragon; 8signed it8
Grooves: Good. I hope we can work together more in the future then 8shook his hand8
Pendragon; 8shook it9
Grooves: 8shook Paul's hand as well8
Paul: Thanks for all the help
Grooves: My pleasure
Pendragon; Thank you
8Paul n Pendragon left the office8
Paul: Can we stop by a cafe? I feel like hving some warm honey lemon tea
Pendragon; Of course
8the two walked to the nearest cafe n sat dwn to hv their drink8
Paul: 8sipped at his lemon tea8 Mmm, tht hit the spot. I was feeling a bit nauseous, so yeah
Pendragon; Sounds like the morning sickness started
Paul: Well, I did puke a deal aftr the incident 8sipped again8 So, abt the spirits in the house. Can't we just...u know, find something to make them go away? Ur parents hv been staying there so far without much problems, n u grew up with them. Isnt there a way? We sure as heck can't sell the house to other ppl coz of the spirits, might as well stay there ourselves n handle them
Pendragon; The only reason I'm alive is cuz of Lord Gracey's protection otherwise that bitch Constance would've beheaded me years ago
Paul: How did all the bad spirits come into ur house in the first plc?
Pendragon; Drawn there
Paul: 8thought for a bit8 Wat if we try to exorcise them? Wat if we remove whatevr it is tht draws them there? Would it work?
Pendragon; My parents tried n failed
Paul: 8thought for a bit8 Wat if I go scope out the plc? U can come with me n ask ur Lord Gracey to protect me, bt I want to scope out the plc n chk it for myself wat exactly is drawing them in
Pendragon; Madame Lottie, her power is drawing the spirits there but she's trapped in a crystal ball n can't get out
Paul: Then I'll help her out. Pls, I need to do this. I'll be part of ur family now. If not for the safety of our own family, at least for the safety of the ppl who might end up in our house. Pls...?
Pendragon; 8sighs8 Alright but how?
Paul: I'll hv to see the situation first before we can do anything. We can ask Pops n Momma to accompany us if u want
Pendragon; 8nods8
Paul: 8texted Ozzy abt the situation8
Ozzy: 8sees the msg n showed it to Thrax8
Thrax; 8nods8 Been wondering when that would be dealt with
Ozzy: 8replied to Paul telling him tht they will be there8 "We'll be there, sweetie. N oh, congratulations on ur new addition. We could smell u a mile away 8giggled as he clicked SEND8
Paul: 8saw the msg n blushed8
Pendragon; Nothing gets by your parents
Paul: 8groaned8 One is a bio-weapon n one is a rare strain of virus. Wat do u expect? 8shook his head n chuckled8
Pendragon; 8kissed him8
Paul: 8kissed him bk8 I love u
Pendragon; Love you too
